"Uncle Dazhi, why are you two the only ones back? Why didn't my dad come back with you? Did he go directly to school?"
As soon as Wu Dazhi and Zhou Zijing returned to Xiaowei Building, Bai Shu suddenly ran down from the second floor like a pony that had taken off its reins, and then asked urgently.
Seeing Bai Shu rushing out, Zhou Zijing dodged extremely quickly and immediately gave up his position beside him. Bai Shu also cooperated very well, grabbing Wu Dazhi's arm and shaking it wildly:
"Uncle Dazhi, tell me quickly, what happened, and why my father didn't come back with you!"
As he spoke, tears were already welling up in Bai Shu's eyes, as if they were about to fall down in the next second. It is said that children have the most exquisite minds. Wu Dazhi looked at Bai Shu like this, as if he had guessed what kind of danger his father had encountered.
After being silent for a while, Wu Dazhi decided to temporarily hide the truth of the matter from Bai Shu, lest the child could not bear it all of a sudden and do something unthinkable, and then he would become the eternal sinner who killed two generations of the Bai family.
"Little boy, what's your expression?" Wu Dazhi touched Bai Shu's head, and then said calmly:
"Your father has been assigned a more important job by the school. He probably won't be able to come back for a while. Otherwise, uncle, why don't you take you to find your mother?!"
Although he had never heard Baizhu mention his mother, Wu Dazhi always believed that it was better for children to stay with their parents.
Now that Director Bai is gone, even if Baizhu doesn't want to, he can only follow his mother.
"No!" As Wu Dazhi expected, Bai Shu decisively rejected his proposal. His expression changed from aggrieved to angry, as if his mother was such a terrifying existence.
"This..." Wu Dazhi was speechless for a moment. He really didn't know how to persuade an awkward child. After thinking for a while, he said:
"Listen to me, I know you will feel uncomfortable not living with your mother for a long time, but after living with her for a period of time, you will definitely fall in love with your mother!"
Wu Dazhi's original intention was to comfort Bai Shu, but he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, Bai Shu burst into tears.
"Uncle Dazhi, why don't you want me anymore? Is it because I'm not good? I promise I will be good in the future!"
Bai Shu wiped away his tears while holding onto Wu Dazhi's pants tightly, as if Wu Dazhi would run away if he let go.
"Baizhu, how could I not want you? But I think you will be happier if you live with your mother!"
Wu Dazhi only thought that Baizhu was having a little temper, and didn't take what he said to heart at all. At this time, Xie Rusi, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore, walked forward, held Baizhu in his arms, and said to Wu Dazhi with a smile
:
"Dazhi, if you want to send Baizhu to his mother, you should at least get a little idea of what kind of person his mother is and who she usually associates with. If she only associates with some shady people, let's send Baizhu there.
Isn’t it just pushing Baizhu into the pit of fire?”
Xie Rusi's soft words not only coaxed Baizhu to heal, but also made Wu Dazhi suddenly enlightened. Xie Rusi was right, he should at least understand the character of Baizhu's mother before making plans.
Thinking of this, Wu Dazhi winked at Xie Rusi. She was much better at dealing with children than he was.
"Baizhu, do you know where your mother lives?" Seeing Wu Dazhi winking at her, Xie Rusi immediately understood what he meant. So she asked softly while stroking Baizhu's head.
Bai Shu shook his head, looking confused.
"Then do you know where your mother works? Or do you know where your grandma lives?"
Xie Rusi continued to ask patiently, but the answer Baizhu gave him was still shaking his head, as if he didn't know everything he asked.
Now even Xie Rusi was embarrassed, and she couldn't help but blame Director Bai in her heart. Even if the child's mother is divorced, you can't let the child have any contact with the mother's house, right?!
"Rusi, please take Baizhu up to rest first!" Wu Dazhi rubbed his temples. The difficulty of the matter was beyond his imagination: "I will try to find a way to ask others in a few days!"
Xie Rusi nodded and went upstairs with Baizhu. As he went up the stairs, Baizhu turned around and looked at Wu Dazhi worriedly:
"Uncle Dazhi, you can't send me away secretly, I'm counting on you for the rest of my life!"
Wu Dazhi suddenly became depressed, and thought to himself, don't count on me. I don't have a girlfriend, but I have a son first... These days... Wu Dazhi couldn't imagine it.
Seeing Bai Shu and Xie Rusi going upstairs, Wu Dazhi waved to the Hanged Man. Just now he saw that the Hanged Man had something to say. Even though this guy had been dead for a long time, he always had a gossipy heart.
He was able to give Wu Dazhi the best advice when he was in trouble.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't hide it!" Wu Dazhi rolled his eyes at the hanged man. Thinking of his tongue that couldn't be straightened gave him a headache.
"Brother Dazhi, I'm not telling you, think about it, Bai Shu doesn't know about his mother's situation, but Director Bai should know her very well, can't we just ask him?"
The Hanged Man spoke with his tongue straight this time, but I don't know where he learned the bad habit of adding an exclamation after every sentence.
Wu Dazhi patiently listened to the Hanged Man's words and then beat him up. He thought he could say something constructive, but he didn't expect that all he said was nonsense.
"Go away! If I can find Director Bai and ask, do I still need to ask Baizhu?!"
"Look, you're anxious again, aren't you!" Faced with Wu Dazhi's fist, the Hanged Man showed no intention of giving in. He still said with a smile: "Look, something must have happened to Director Bai, even if it's
Even though he is dead, his soul is still there. Why don’t you ask cousin Dajin if there is any news?!"
Wu Dazhi was suddenly afraid of his thighs. He had forgotten all about his big gold watch. If he didn't make use of such ready-made social resources, he would no longer be able to use the back door when the underworld began to reform.
.
"The Hanged Man, I found that you are still very useful after you die!" Wu Dazhi looked at the Hanged Man with approval. Just when he was about to reach out and pat him, the Hanged Man stepped back and said:
"Brother Dazhi, haven't you noticed the difference in yourself? You are different now than you were before. There is a kind of power in you now. If you don't control it well, I will be wiped out!"
As soon as the Hanged Ghost finished speaking, he felt a cool breeze blowing behind him, and then a rather calm voice sounded behind him:
"If you were blocking the way, I would wipe you out right now. Believe it or not?!"
With a whoop, the Hanged Man flew towards the floor-to-ceiling window with great self-awareness. At that speed, even Bolt would probably kneel down in front of him.
As soon as the Hanged Ghost glanced around, Wu Dazhi saw the two people he least wanted to see. No, they were two ghosts, black and white.
